Mr Johnson is the first party leader to cast his vote this morning as the UK heads to the polls in the most crucial election in a generation. 

Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn is also expected to vote early in his Islington North constituency with the result in the first December general election since 1923 said to be on a knife-edge.
